i travel every two weeks for my small business to the netherlands and the pricing is much different.

wondering why and best strategy to take advantage of it.

thanks in advance.
Demand is different for travel originating in different locations, and so pricing decisions by the airlines tend to lead to different pricing internationally than they do for domestic trips where bidirectional fares being the same is way more common. I routinely take a one-way trip to Europe and then start my series of trips in Europe to get me between the two continents while saving substantial money and even having better fare rules.
